ABOUT

================================

Hi! I'm Michael, a computer scientist interested in operating systems, distributed computing, and security.

I earned my BS in Computer Science at Georgia Tech 🐝 and am currently pursuing my MS. On campus, I'm a TA for CS 3210: Operating Systems.

I'm currently interning at Palantir Technologies in New York City. I previously worked at Capital One and T-Mobile.

When I'm not programming, I enjoy watching movies, learning how to play guitar and sing, and playing/watching sports.
